Menudo= water with 1 chile seco no flavor no nothing. To expensive the service sucks waitress dont even come to check if you need or want something. Be prepared to sit next to plants and who knows might fall on your head. The only good thing about this place is the Mexican music.

Very good! A little pricey and a bit harder to find but definitely worth it. Pretty small area inside so wouldn't recommend large families dining in.
Amazing and authentic

I didn't go inside, my son did. The food is good. Very down home...like it was cooked in someone's Tia or Abuletas kitchen. I grew up in Los Angeles where the Mexican food is A+....this reminds me of home.
Try their Menudo it's the best. With their homemade tortillas. The sopes are also really good. ? The restaurant is small but the food is so good.
